Hung, has Ian Drury gone to Gordon too ? Cripes – it’s getting hard to keep up. I reckon when Keith Richards goes, there’ll be no excuse for anybody else !

“Dury died of metastatic colorectal cancer on 27 March 2000, aged 57” from Wiki boss. Very hard to keep up at the moment.

Here’s an excellent bio http://www.iandury.co.uk/biography/ and gives the connection with Kirsty MacColl (and I never heard her, shamed to say).

Kirsty would have been 56 over the weekend (but that’s a coincidence for this list). Killed in a boating accident. She’s linked to plenty, The Smiths, The Pogues as well as Billy Bragg in particular. Shes done backing vocals for Robert Plant, The Smiths, Alison Moyet, Shriekback, Simple Minds, Talking Heads, Big Country and Anni-Frid Lyngstad as well
